Hey guys thanks for the feedback and sorry for being late with my reply- I wanted to pair it with something to demonstrate that I understood and learned what you said. But there is my problem. I seem to be getting progressively worse. I am going to do something that is probably considered tasteless or faux pas-y here (I have no clue I am a noobie), and post my entire work page.



I don't know what's wrong. You can clearly see that the girl is inferior to the guy (in terms of quality of spritework), and the newest addition, hooded bro, is completely inferior in all of his forms. I can't even get any of the sprites into the same perspective as the first, and I had intended it to be a style that I would eventually make into a game. Can anyone see something in perhaps my work process which could be the cause? Is my modest muse just a fickle bitch?

I recently posted a sprite on another forum, and was told that by an extremely talented spriter for whom I have a great deal or respect, that "pixelart of this resolution isn't really detailed enough to quibble over". My sprite isn't even like 8 by 3 or something like that, it's 18x44, but that's not even the point. 1 pixel, isolated, I think is not detailed enough to warrant too much excitement, so therefore there must by a line. At what size are sprites meaningful?

SKIN uses SURPRISE

MORIBUND is confused

But then once I got over that I decided I really liked it. The only thing for me is that the fancy new icons kinda clash a little bit with the smileys and the top banner.

The standard is around $ 8-10 an hour. If you're getting paid by the asset, you can just figure out the average time it will take and charge based on that.

That's awful. Even for fairly experienced spriters?
